Upon crossing the southern end of Sulawesi Street, visitors find themselves on Hasanuddin Street. While Sulawesi Street is renowned as a hub for textile trade, Hasanuddin Street is distinguished for its gold trading. This street is lined with numerous gold shops, each offering an array of quality gold jewelry.
The jewelry shops scattered along Hasanuddin Street typically open from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. local time. These shops deal in gold of diverse grades, from low to high. In addition to selling gold, the shops on Hasanuddin Street also purchase gold from customers wishing to sell their gold jewelry.
Beyond its identity as a gold trading center, the Hasanuddin Street area also offers a view of Tukad Badung, a river that bisects the Badung Market. From the vantage point of the bridge, visitors can appreciate the beauty of Tukad Badung, now a budding tourist attraction in the city of Denpasar.
By taking a left at the western four-way intersection on Hasanuddin Street, visitors will wind their way through the Bukit Tunggal Street area. This area is home to several Melati hotels, which are popular choices among domestic tourists.
